Eating chocolate commercials

qualitygal — Fri, 28 Feb 2014 13:31:57 GMT

I've watched these over time and the women, take these intsy tinsy nibbles, I know they are trying to sell the bar and want to show the name, but heaven forbid, they stick the 1" x 1" square right in their mouth.

I haven't lingered over pieces of chocolate that way. Maybe that's what I need to do.

I don't know, how do you eat your chocolate?

Well, I have a tendency towards kidney stones, so chocolate is on my no-no list. When I do have a bite of chocolate, I want it to be a bite that I can really enjoy. I usually save myself for Ghradelli's (sp?) bites and yes, I do the small bites to savor every moment of it.

They're trying to show you that it's a guilty indulgence

I stick the whole thing in my mouth. I used to work with a girl that would unwrap one of those little reeses peanut butter cups that are covered in foil, take a little bite and wrap it back up to save for later.

Oh, geez, I love chocolate! Usually take a normal bite and enjoy. However, was recently placed on a very restricted food plan which eliminated chocolate. Boy, am I having a hard time with this, so decided to give up chocolate for lent and hope that by doing that I can permanently get away from chocolate. (yeh, right...)

That commercial always struck me as odd.

They make it look like that piece of chocolate is 12 ft x 12 ft.....seriously, I pop those things in my mouth, chew, and swallow faster than a New York minute.

LOL!! DH actually saw that commercial and said to me, "REALLY??? WHO, and I do mean, WHO actually eats chocolate like that??" I had to laugh because I don't know anyone who would - and certainly I would not. I have no qualms whatsoever "HOOVERING" in anything that is a good chocolate. I would say ANY chocolate, but that isn't true - some of it isn't good - too grainy, too fakey, etc.

JESSA: Too funny - my best friend of 25 years has always eaten Reese's that way. When we were roommates after high school, she would buy a pack of them, eat ONE, then wrap up the other and just let the thing SIT for days sometimes. One time I finally said, " Are you ever going to eat that thing?" She said she wasn't up for it at the time, but if I wanted it I could have it. So from that point on, it was GAME ON. She knew what would happen if she left ONE little, lonely Reese's PB cup sittin' around the place. So...my job was to go to Kmart and get one of those big packages of individual wrapped large ones so I could replace them when needed. Ohhh, the days........ I haven't had one of those in two years.

Gotta love chocolate!!!

Maybe they had so many retakes they were sick of eating it - is that even possible, lol?

I take 3 Dove chocolate eggs, unwrap the foil, pop all 3 in my mouth at once....put the bag in the freezer and let the three melt SLOWLY in my mouth.

I do the same with Lindt truffles...but just ONE out of the freezer.
